At one of the Mortified meetings on
Monday Mr.. Moody, who was preaching
shout ''Prayer," said: "Man may pray like
IL saint, but if he has dollar in his pocket
not acquired honestly, his prayer is q sham,
and he must make restitution If he expects
ever to have God hear his prayer" mere
upon merchant from Dallas, Tex, rose IN
the audience and told o story that empha-
sized this point. He had, he said, got dis
honestly from men in his business some
S.. 500 and had built a house with the
money. Then Mr.. Moody happened along
and preached on this subject of restitution
and the merchant was present. Il heard
you," he said, pointing to Mr.. Moody, land
/ went out into the street conscience strick-
gu. I went straight home and told my
wife that We must sell the house and restore
the money. And we did. We held an auc-
ton, and our carpets, our laces, our furni-
lure all left us, and with the proceeds we
made restitution" The man then told how
he and his wife started again in life with
nothing, and how he had prospered. His
credit, his prosperity had never been SO

eat in the country, and its usefulness hiss
been demonstrated and appreciated durno
the EIGHTY. SEVEN YEARS ofits existence In
its columns has always been found a mirror
of passing events, and the careful cbroni.
cling of the history fwhat is going on in the
world has ever been its aim. 1t is alvavs
welcomed in the household, while in tho
counting room and workshop it has become
invaluable
The GAZETTE has better facilities for ob
tanning news than any paper outside of the
national capital. Situated as it is 90 close
to the great centre of news, it enjoys daily
the benefit OF the Associated Press dis
patches from every part ofthe world hence
its patrons can read from it's columns in the
evening what has transpired that day in
oc i
from every part of the habtable globe.
Consequently it is an every day occurrence
for the GAZETTE to publish kilograms from
the various European capitals twelve and
fifteen hours earlier than the morning rs
pers.
Another feature that serves to make the
GAZETTE o great desideratum with mcr
chants is its afternoon market reports from
New York, Baltimore, Chicago and Other
centres.
The local department furnishes q full and
complete history of everything that occurs
Il and near the city, and this feature will
as ever, receive careful attention.
Correspondence from Washington, Rich
mond and every section of theState, is pub.
lished regularly. and all events of interest
occurring within the bounds of the Com.
monweath are TO lie found in the columns
of the GAZETTE.
The GAzETTE's circulation is steadily il
creasing, especially among people who con
suit its advertising columns before purchaa
ing. That this is selfevident may be infer.
red from the fact that large country edi-
tion-nearly rs large rs tho daily--is sent
all over this section OF country three times
week, and is read by thousands, most Of
whom send here or 10 contiguous cities to
make purchases. The advantages of ad.
vertising in the GAZETTE are, therefore, aI,-
darent.

Throughout the length and breadth Of
Mexico Saturday is known as s'beggars'
day, when, under special countenance Of
church and state, mendicants of. all de-
grees and both sexes levy demands upon
people with the utmost confidence. Out
of their coverts and LARS they swarm
in incredible numbers-the blind, the
halt, the lame and the lazy-and before
sunrise on the morning aforesaid the
streets are literally filed with them.
Firot they make tour Of the shops and
markets, and the oblging merchants, in
anticipation of their coming, have laid by
o store of small coin for the occasion. To
refuse TO give would be bad advertise
.nent, for among these professional mem
dicants are many good customers for the
rest of tho week. Then they HE them
selves, with their rags and crutches, TO
the sanctuaries, and after mass is over and
the churches deserted they patrol every
street, leaving not house unyisited or d
